in the vehicle when the intrusion
sensor is activated.

system and activating the intrusion
sensor:
Make sure both doors and
windows are completely closed.
Secure any loose items such as
sunshades.
Make sure there are no
obstructions blocking the
sensors.

and inclination sensors be
deactivated if pets are left in the
vehicle or the vehicle is being
transported.
With the vehicle turned off, press
to the right of the hatch/trunk
release button. The indicator light
will come on momentarily, indicating
that these sensors have been
disabled for the next alarm system
arming cycle.
